Diabetes, Hypertension, Obesity, and Smoking as Risk Factors for Chronic Kidney Disease in Productive Age

Abstract

Background: Based on the Indonesia basic health research report in 2018, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the productive age group in Indonesia had increased from the previous year, to 1.97%. This condition can cause various complications that contribute to the high morbidity, which affects quality of life and productivity, so risk factors for CKD need to be understood to prevent the occurrence of the disease. Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with CKD in the Indonesian productive-age population. Method: This study used data sourced from Indonesian Family Life Survey 5 (IFLS-5) with a cross-sectional research design. The study population was composed of all Indonesian residents who were respondents of IFLS-5. The research sample was made up of respondents aged 15–64 for whom complete information was available. The sample size was 29,120 respondents. The variables analyzed in this study were diabetes, hypertension, obesity, smoking, and CKD. The analysis method used was the chi-square test. Results: Bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between CKD and diabetes (p = 0.01; prevalence ratio [PR] = 2.71; 95% CI = 1.74–4.22), hypertension (p = 0.01; PR = 2.62; 95% CI = 2.08–3.30), obesity (p = 0.01; PR = 1.67; 95% CI = 1.25–2.23), and smoking (p = 0.01; PR = 1.43; 95% CI = 1.17–1.75) in the productive age group in Indonesia. Conclusion: Diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and smoking have a significant relationship with CKD in the productive age group in Indonesia.

The role of oxidative stress markers in Indonesian chronic kidney disease patients: a cross sectional study

“…13 Moreover, we also found a large number of patients had a history of diabetes mellitus (75%) with an average HbA1c level of 6.85AE1.67%. This is in accordance with a study by Sinusi and Hargono (2021) according to data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey 5 (IFLS-5), which showed that hypertension and diabetes mellitus are the primary risk factors for CKD. 14 Uncontrolled hypertension is a risk factor of arteriolar nephrosclerosis, a vascular injury in the preglomerular arterioles that leads to glomerular ischemia, 15 whereas a high level of blood glucose will impair the insulin signaling pathway in the glomerulus of the kidneys, which leads to proapoptotic environment.…”

Quality of Life of Family Caregivers of Patients Undergoing Dialysis: A Literature Review

“…Other comorbidities such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus are factors that contribute to the level of difficulty experienced by family caregivers ( Bestari, 2017 ). Poor lifestyle factors such as obesity and smoking make it difficult for family caregivers to care for patients with CKD ( Sinusi & Hargono, 2021 ). The patient's condition, which hinders the undergoing dialysis process, greatly aggravates the treatment and affects the physical capacity of family caregivers.…”

The influence of social environment and facility support on smoking in adolescent males in Indonesia

“…12 Previous Studies found that smoking became a risk factor the diseases such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, and chronic kidney disease at a productive age. [13][14][15] Prevention approaches have included peer education, banning smoking in public areas, restricting cigarette advertising, and increase the tax on cigarette. However, the number of adolescent smokers is still high.…”
